Tire Presss Sensor Problem
Got a flat tire today, glad I have the run flats.
Plugged the tire and now the TPS is stuck at 28 psi.
My tire gage says 40 psi. After driving a bit, it is still stuck at 28 psi. I went through a couple of on off cycles already, all else seems ok.
Any thoughts on this? Thanks

Measure your other side tire, the TPSs may have been switched. I doubt this, as it probably lead to your discovering which tire was flat.
Try running over some rough road or a railroad tracks.

Thanks guys, I did let some air out this morning and all is well. Man was it difficult to get the awl through the nail hole and double goes for the plug. That's not coming out ever!
